Seeds

Purpose and Vision

The purpose of children’s ministry is to come alongside parents in helping them fulfill their biblical parenting responsibilities. For God to be worshipped and glorified, children’s ministry will attempt to evangelize children as well as teach them the character of God in age-appropriate ways. In a safe and clean environment, children’s ministry will provide an attractive, captivating, and challenging place for children to desire to learn about God. Grace Church will serve parents through physical and spiritual care of their children and serve children through loving biblical instruction.

Promotion Sunday • June 11

Sunday, June 11, marks the day that all children and students in grade-based ministries move up a grade level. All Seeds classrooms below first grade are age-based classes. See below for the changes affecting first, third, and fifth grades. 

Entering First Grade
Students who are finishing Kindergarten and entering first grade will be moving into the 1st & 2nd Grade class that meets in the Room 201A.

Entering Third Grade
Students who are finishing second grade and entering third grade will be moving into the 3rd & 4th Grade class that meets in the Generations Building Chapel.

Entering Fifth Grade ∙ Explorers
Students who are finishing fourth grade and entering fifth grade will be welcomed into Explorers, our new ministry for fifth & sixth grade students. 

 

Fifth Sundays • July 30, Oct 29, Dec 31

There will be no Seeds for first through sixth grade students on the fifth Sunday of each month. These fifth Sundays will be a chance for you to worship together as a family and for your kids to participate in the worship service alongside the whole church body. We will still have classes in the Generations Building for birth through kindergarten. If you have any questions, please contact Aaron Logan at (661) 330-2281.

Check In

Check in your children to both Sunday School (8:30 am) and Seeds (10:00 am) classes by going to the Generations Building Lobby. If you are new, the check in staff will help you. If you have been with us before, go directly to a self-check in station.
